Re: DIY OLED Display for NORD LEAD A1
I will check and compare tomorrow in daylight with a RAL color register (I’m in the paint business).
As written above monitor or display colors can’t be compared with printed, liquid or powder coatings (the synth bodies are powder painted).

I tried yesterday but there was no real daylight in the room due to the depressing November grey outside
At the moment I would suggest RAL 3003, perhaps also RAL 3000, but neither of them matches perfectly.
Choosing the right grey shade isn’t easier. I’m hoping for some brighter light and would check it again.
The classics RAL catalogue doesn’t have many colors because it was developed as an industrial standard and not as a design or architecture standard. I’m almost sure they’re using NCS colors.

Re: DIY OLED Display for NORD LEAD A1
update...
- new design for "Scroll-Mode" (I copied the look mostely from my Electro 5 but I haven't found the right font -> the "A" is more flat at top)
Button order arrived (Marquardt 6450. series)
At the moment I will go for 2 Buttons for "Scroll" an "Prog/Perf" an 4 or 8 buttons for Favorite-Sounds or some other weird CC-commands

Re: DIY OLED Display for NORD LEAD A1
VERY impressive! I don't currently own a NLA1 though would be curious if you would consider making these and selling them to people, once you get the thing fully complete? It's so cool!

Yes please! I think it’s not just me who’s being very curious and excited to see a final and working (real!) display that eventually could be "multiplied" - in which way ever

although I started this project primarily to satisfy MY "display need", I admit that I already thought about replicating it for other NORD players. Sometimes it was also a reason why I presented this project in this forum. To find out ...
1.) how big the need would be (quantity of devices)
2.) how much a customer would be willing to pay for it? NORD users pay horrific sums for triple pedals or halfmoon switches ... )
3.) whether the admittedly somewhat cumbersome reading-in procedure * of the patch names would lower the points mentioned.
*) Export the patch list in the NORD sound manager, convert the list into a .txt file and copy it to the SD card (possibly with a one-click app), insert the SD card into the "display box", which is not yet implemented at the moment, but I think one way or another I could get it to work.
With regard to the costs, I can currently only estimate. I think, however, that since I have mostly only bought individual parts, of course, I will probably come across my finished prototype. 60-100 euros. But then nothing is soldered together or programmed or 3D printed. Not to mention the development time.
Well, it remains exciting. The cool thing is that NORD Lead 4 users could probably also enjoy an OLED display with this device after minor code adjustments.
I still have so many ideas and considerations in my head that I will definitely present here in due course or ask for your opinion (if I may).
